The White House Military Office Marine Corps aide was on “Football” duty tonight for Trump’s latest trip to Mar-a-Lago—his private home/club. The ~45-pound satchel accompanies Trump 24/7, enabling him to authorize the use of any of our ~1,770 deployed nuclear weapons—up to 900 on alert—at any time.

@jenniferbray.bsky.social just listened to Friday's Inside Politics podcast and learned you're off to pastures new. You'll be sorely missed, loved your down-to-earth sensibilities and analysis. The best of luck for the future!

Wouldn’t this be great? I think most left the other site because of him and personally I’m happy never to hear of him. If only some ppl would just stop reposting 🙄
Okay, it’s impossible to do today.

Instead I’m launching a “No Musk Bluesky Sunday” for next Sunday, 19 Jan.

Folks, just try not to post about him here for one day. Please.

Please RT the hell out of this.
